About the Danish Design Award
The Danish Design Award highlights the positive impact of design in everyday life and celebrates companies and designers across the country for their innovative solutions to complex issues.
The essence of exceptional design lies in a profound respect for materials, people, and society. This year’s winners are chosen based on our five core design values: Do no harm, Pursue beauty, Lead the way, Prove your impact, and Solve problems worth solving. It showcases that Danish design stands for more than craftsmanship and aesthetics – it’s also an ethical commitment to creating a better world.
Design that matters
